The Antecedents of Psychic Distance (2010, background): “…based on respondents’ judgments as to the degree of similarity between home and target countries produce asymmetry whenever more than one source country is involved (Brock, Shenkar, Shoham, and Siscovick, 2008; Dichtl et al. , 1984, Ellis, 2008; Dow, 1990; Stöttinger and Schlegelmilch, 1998).”
Beyond Hofstede and GLOBE: Improving the quality of cross-cultural research (2010, background): “A useful starting point to improve the quality of cross-cultural studies is to highlight and challenge 10 common assumptions characteristic of much applied empirical work on cultural distance dimensions and measures, thereby revisiting and augmenting Shenkar's (2001) seminal analysis (see Table 1).”
